NAME
zmq_ctx_term - terminate a 0MQ context
SYNOPSIS
int zmq_ctx_term (void *context);
DESCRIPTION
The zmq_ctx_term() function shall destroy the 0MQ context context. Context termination is performed in the following steps: 1. Any blocking operations currently in progress on sockets open within context shall return immediately with an error code of ETERM. With the exception of zmq_close(), any further operations on sockets open within context shall fail with an error code of ETERM. 2. After interrupting all blocking calls, zmq_ctx_term() shall block until the following conditions are satisfied: • All sockets open within context have been closed with zmq_close(). • For each socket within context, all messages sent by the application with zmq_send() have either been physically transferred to a network peer, or the socket’s linger period set with the ZMQ_LINGER socket option has expired. For further details regarding socket linger behaviour refer to the ZMQ_LINGER option in zmq_setsockopt(3). This function replaces the deprecated functions zmq_term(3) and zmq_ctx_destroy(3).
RETURN VALUE
The zmq_ctx_term() function shall return zero if successful. Otherwise it shall return -1 and set errno to one of the values defined below.
ERRORS
EFAULT The provided context was invalid. EINTR Termination was interrupted by a signal. It can be restarted if needed.
